Summary - 31, RAEBURN CRESCENT, BATHGATE, WHITBURN EH47 8HQ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Two-bed freehold with steady income and 7.7% gross yield.
Long-term tenant in situ, immediate rental income
A straightforward buy-to-let in Bathgate, offered with a long-term tenant in place and producing predictable income. The flat is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom freehold unit of around 721 sq ft in a low-rise modern residential block close to local shops and transport links. Current gross annual income is £6,540, giving a current gross yield of approximately 7.7% at the asking price of £85,000.
The sitting tenant has occupied the property for several years and pays reliably, which reduces void risk and makes this attractive to investors seeking immediate rental return. The building exterior and street setting look maintained; internal condition and exact layout require full inspection as photographic and floorplan detail is limited in the pack.
Notable considerations: the property sits in an area recorded as very deprived, which can affect long-term capital growth and tenant mix. A Buyer’s Premium applies to the sale and interested parties should review the Let Property Pack for tenancy documents and charges. Investors should factor in potential refurbishment and management costs after inspection to confirm net yield and scope for rent increases.
This is best suited to a buyer targeting income from day one — a portfolio investor, landlord looking to scale, or developer assessing longer-term repositioning — rather than a purchaser seeking a vacant handover or immediate refurbishment-free possession.
